Chapter 478 – Cang Yue Empress

The Ice Flame detached from Yun Che’s palm and attached itself on top of the stone door, there was no power roar, there was no outburst of phoenix flames or ice rays, there wasn’t even the slightest sound or light from the power release, it just slowly extinguished and disappeared without a sound.

And the part of the stone door to which the Ice Flame was attached, there was an additional depression that was the size of a fist!

This depression to the inward present incomparable rules of hemispherical, which is flat and smooth to the extreme, comparable to the most flawless mirror, as if the world’s most exquisite craftsmanship polished out of the general.

Looking at the depression that was close at hand, a look of surprise appeared on Yun Che’s face. Previously, he had opened Purgatory, used his strongest attack, and even shattered the Dragon Que before he had punched out a half fingernail sized gap, allowing him to just see a glimmer of light to get out from here, but now, the miracle created by Ice Flame …… was something that had almost allowed him to already clearly see the day when he would get out of here!

“Very good!” Yun Che clenched his hands in excitement, “In that case, a few hundred times at the most, we’ll be able to blast out a large enough gap!”

Yun Che once again opened his hands, burning phoenix flames and condensing ice razors, but once, before the fusion even began, his brain was dazzled, and a deep sense of lack of energy flooded through his Xuan Pulse. The reaction of his Xuan Power and Spiritual Power caused him to hesitate for a while before putting away the Phoenix Flame and the ice razor, and then closing his eyes and concentrating, he restored his Xuan Power and Spiritual Power with all his might.

Half a day passed, and Yun Che’s Xuan Force and Spiritual Force also finally recovered to their peak state, and he began to fuse the Ice Flame again. This time, the fusion time seemed to be slightly shorter than the last time, and as he blasted the Ice Flame towards the stone door, the location was the same depression that he had created earlier. Instantly, as the Ice Flame devoured and destroyed it without a sound, the fist-sized depression from before expanded significantly in both width and depth, but it was still as smooth as a mirror, without any roughness or diamond corners.

In this place that had already confined him for eighteen months, the only thing he had to do was to get out of here. For the rest of the time, Yun Che basically spent all of it on fusing the Ice Flame and recovering his Xuan Force and energy. Repeating the same actions and processes every day,…… without realizing it, his speed of fusing Ice Flame became faster and faster, from the initial fusion of up to two times a day, but three times a day, and then four times a day,…… five months later, under the limit state, he was already able to one day barely fusing as many as five times a whole!

Compared to the beginning, both the time required for fusion and the consumption of xuan power and spirit had dropped by several times.

Moreover, this process, his Xuan Force and Spiritual Force were also being quenched very substantially ……

Tianxuan Continent, Cangfeng Country.

At this time, two whole years had already passed since the news of Yun Che’s burial in the Swift Xuan Ark came. While Yun Che was struggling in the Taikoo Xuan Ark, the Cangfeng Kingdom had also long since become a chaotic mess, with smoke rising in all directions.

The capital of Cangfeng Kingdom, Cangfeng Imperial City.

“Your Majesty, something big has happened, Crescent City has completely fallen, Murong City Lord and Great General Zhenhuai died in battle one after another, and a portion of the disciples of the Crescent Xuanfu who spontaneously organized themselves to resist …… also all died in battle …… Now, Crescent City, Cang Fire Domain, and the Thick Earth Realm …… have all been lost ……”

The bad news came, causing everyone present to turn pale with vigor. Cang Feng Mansion Lord Dongfang Huo said in a shocked voice, “How could it be so fast! Over at Crescent City, isn’t there a whole 400,000 defenders!”

“Back to the Oriental Mansion Lord, yesterday, the Divine Phoenix Empire’s attacking team suddenly had four more Phoenix Divine Sect powerhouses, who are all said to be strong at the Hegemony Xuan Realm …… 400,000 defenders, a large portion of them, died under their Phoenix Yan …… Half of Crescent City, has also been burned into ruins ah!” That soldier who was covered in wounds was already bawling as he spoke.

Four Hegemonic Emperors ……

Those present were all characters with extremely high power in the Cangfeng Kingdom, but under such news, they were still shocked, their whole bodies sweating, and a sense of despair even arose in their hearts. Their gazes were all focused on Cang Yue’s body.

Cang Yue was dressed in gold, wearing a purple and gold crown on her head, standing on top of the city tower, looking out to the south, seemingly seeing the relentless smoke from afar. Her face was still majestic, her beautiful eyes were calm, and the news of the fall of Crescent Moon City did not seem to have affected her in the slightest.

She was no longer the Cang Yue Princess who was gentle and soft, and only had Yun Che in her life, but rather, she was the Cang Yue Empress who held the highest power in Cang Feng, and led all of Cang Feng’s people in the midst of the war.

She turned around, her phoenix eyes sweeping over the crowd, her voice as flat as water, “All of you, do you have anything to say about the loss of Crescent Moon?”

The generals looked at each other in disbelief, but there was no month to stand out and speak. The divine phoenix empire is too powerful, pale wind country compared to it, national strength disparity to the basic can be called a world of difference, and the divine phoenix empire’s war simply can not be called a war, but a lopsided massacre and crushing. From the divine phoenix empire sudden invasion to now less than two years of time, the pale wind country more than half of the territory lost, the most important five main city has also all fallen, in a short time, they will be attacked under the Cangfeng imperial city …… do not say that the present pale wind country, even if it is again ten times more powerful Cangfeng country, but also basically impossible to have the possibility of resisting.

In front of absolute strength, any strategy and wariness, are all useless delusions.

Amidst the deathly silence, there was finally a person who couldn’t help himself and got up and shouted: ”Imperial sister! This battle, it is simply impossible for us to win, all resistance, apart from increasing casualties in vain, is simply meaningless! The Divine Phoenix Empire is already pressing in with a large army, it won’t take much for the troops to arrive at the Cangfeng Imperial City, it’s only the most correct choice for us to surrender early and quell this war now!”

The person who spoke was none other than the second prince Cang Night …… No, with Cang Yue ascending to the throne as the emperor, his identity is now also already a Prince. As soon as his words came out, the faces of some of the generals present immediately showed anger …… And these, just a small portion, the eyes of the vast majority of people were flickering. Because Cang Night had spoken the words that they had held in their hearts for a long time, but did not dare to say.

“Unbridled!” Cang Yue let out a furious rebuke, “At the current time of the national disaster and the fall of Crescent City, instead of being mindful of the national crisis and hating the Divine Phoenix with anger, you shouted out such shameful words as surrender in public! You have truly disappointed this Emperor!”

Cang Night glanced at the reactions of the people around him, clenched his teeth, and snapped, “Imperial sister! We all know in our hearts how powerful the Divine Phoenix Empire is and whether or not the Cang Feng Kingdom will still exist in a few years! The so-called resistance is simply meaningless! If we surrender and take the initiative to welcome the Divine Phoenix Army, the war can be stopped immediately, and after the Divine Phoenix Empire accepts our Cangfeng Kingdom, it will not only let us live, it will also give us a not-so-low status ……”

“Shut up!” Empress Cang Yue’s willow eyebrows slanted up in fury: “Cang Night! As a royal prince, you have spoken such treacherous and shameless words! Have you forgotten how the Divine Phoenix Kingdom Army wreaked havoc on my Cangfeng territory? Have you forgotten how many of Cangfeng’s people have lost their lives in defense of our land? Have you forgotten how Father died …… In front of such national hatred and countless martyrs’ bones, you are so greedy and afraid of death, willing to be a slave of the fallen nation ……”

Cang Feng chest violently undulating, obviously disappointed and angry: “Nen your first offense, this emperor temporarily forget your words just now, if you dare to say half a bit of loss of my royal dignity words, this emperor by no means spare you!”

Being scolded so angrily by Cang Yue in front of all the important ministers, Cang Ye’s face darkened for a while, he gritted his teeth and roared unwillingly, “Imperial sister! This king is by no means greedy for life and fear of death, but for the sake of my Cangfeng royal family, for the sake of the safety and security of everyone present, and for the sake of the entire Cangfeng Kingdom ah! Wherever the divine phoenix country goes, all the big clans have defected, even Xiao Zong and other clans have taken the initiative to meet, extremely loyal to …… have life to have everything, can tolerate a moment of humiliation is a great man …… and imperial sister you are now the emperor of the Cangfeng, as long as you take the initiative to surrender, maybe Divine Phoenix Royal Family will still seal you as the Lord of Cangfeng, otherwise, you will only have one way to die. Fate is worlds apart…… imperial sister, you really shouldn’t be obsessed anymore!”

“Asshole!” Empress Cang Yue was completely enraged, her majestic gaze turning cold and piercing, “Men, escort Cang Night down to the city hall and behead him in public!”

As soon as Cang Yue said this, everyone present was shocked, and at once a dozen old ministers scrambled to step forward, but before they had the chance to open their mouths, Cang Yue had already coldly said, “Anyone who dares to plead for leniency, will be implicated as well!”

Two gold-robed guards immediately flew up and firmly escorted Cang Yue, dragging him backwards. Cang Night never thought that Cang Yue would actually want to behead him …… He is, after all, Cang Yue’s biological brother, the Prince of the Cang Feng Royal Family. He struggled while hissing, “You …… you dare to kill me? I am the Prince of Cang Feng, your royal brother …… All my words are for the sake of the royal bloodline, what gives you the right to kill me …… If you kill me, how can you stand up to your dead father!”

“If this emperor does not kill you, only is sorry father emperor, sorry my Cangfeng royal family ancestors! My Cangfeng royal family out of your such greedy and fearful of death, willing to be a human slave scum, is simply a disgrace …… do not need to drag down, the scene immediately beheaded!!!”

“Imperial sister …… you …… wait, imperial sister …… ah!!!”

Puffing ……

With the sharp and incomparable hands of the gold clad guards, Cang Night’s head flew up from his neck amidst the gazes of the crowd, spilling blood and flying out before landing with a thud, dragging the scarlet trail of blood to gurgle and roll out a long way.

Everyone’s throats heaved, and those who had come out to plead for Cang Yu backed away in panic, their legs trembling. After Cang Yue ascended the throne, the Cang Feng Xuanfu was completely loyal to her under the leadership of Dongfang Huo, controlling the power of the Cang Feng Xuanfu, and the identity of the emperor, which was tantamount to holding the supreme power of life and death, even if Cang Ye was a Prince, if she wanted to kill, she couldn’t dare to block and resent.

“Cang Feng can be overthrown with a bang, but will never live on in humiliation! If Cang Feng is extinguished, this Emperor will die, as long as this Emperor has a breath in her body, she will vow to fight the Divine Phoenix Empire to the death……. You guys, is there anyone else who wants to surrender?”

Cang Yue Empress’s eyes swept through everyone, voice with heavy bullying and light killing aura, as her voice fell, the presence of hundreds of important ministers all panicked kneel, silent as a cicada, no one dares to mention the word “surrender”.

Oriental Hugh stood in the forefront, silently looking at Cang Yue Queen, heart a long sigh: he long accompanied Cang Wan Yu side, Cang Yue can be said to be he watched grow up, in the royal family such as this everywhere through the smoke of the place, her mind is as a clear water, a soft delicate flowers. She detested strife, never bullying any subordinates as a princess, gentle and kind, not to mention killing people, since childhood, it was a small animal, never wanting to hurt.

After she and Yun Che got married, she even stopped asking about the royal family, and even completely forgot her own identity as a princess, and her whole heart was completely tied to Yun Che’s body, and after Yun Che went to the Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, she leaned out of the window day after day in anticipation, and she didn’t spare any effort to ask for advice from all of the palace maids around her, and she quietly went to learn all sorts of things that a wife should be able to do, and she only thought about how to become Yun Che’s most excellent and perfect breath.

Now, she had become a completely different person, decisive and powerful, sometimes even ruthless and cold-faced. The softness and elegance that was once there had all but disappeared.

Two years ago, Yun Che buried in the news of the Taikoo Xuanzhou, Cang Yue on the spot coma, a sick, three months later, the Divine Phoenix Empire three million soldiers broke into the border, a large-scale invasion, Cang Feng from the chaos, precarious …… three months later, Cang Wan Gully suffered an assassination, on his deathbed, but could not find the successor to the throne of the person! …… Those princes are usually fighting, trying to find ways to show in front of Cang Wan Yu to please, dreaming of succeeding the throne, but then the invasion of Divine Phoenix Empire army, Cangfeng has been the realm of certain death, and who would like to be the death of the country. The king? Hiding is too late.

At this time, still immersed in the pain of Yun Che’s burial, Cang Yue appeared in front of Cang Wan Yu’s bed, and with his own soft shoulders, he took the initiative to resist the heavy responsibility of this fallen country. In the history of Cang Feng’s royal family, there had never been a female emperor, but when Cang Yue succeeded to the throne, all of the emperors did not oppose it, and instead, they let out a long sigh of relief.

Dongfang Hugh also remembers, at that time, Cang Wan Gul grasped Cang Yue’s hand, eyes with tears, gently said: “Yue’er, bitter you ……” and then the gaze is fixed, old tears slipped, died in peace.

Yes, it is indeed bitter for her. She at the same time bear the pain of the deceased husband, the difficulties of the deceased country …… change to do ordinary women, it is impossible to carry down. But she carried down, after succeeding to the throne, she did not shed a drop of tears, and her temperament has completely changed …… or said, before the national disaster, she had to change.

Dongfang Hugh didn’t know whether to be relieved or heartbroken.

“General Feng, you immediately lead all the iron cavalry under your command to march south, at the same time send a message to Lord Geng Wanli of the Desert, let him give up the northwest, and immediately set off to the south …… day and night, and within fifteen days you must meet at the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range north of Crescent City! Then divide and hide on both sides of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, and when the Divine Phoenix Army arrives, ambush them on the left and right!”

“Remember! The further in the Beasts Mountain Range you go, the more ferocious the beasts will be, so just stay hidden on the periphery, never go deeper!”

When mentioning the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, Cang Yue’s heart trembled …… because back then, they had mutual feelings for each other, and it was in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range in the midst of the common hardships.

“The last general is ordered!!!” A mighty general in silver armor with a full-body mighty aura stepped out to salute, then raised his head and asked, “Your Majesty, if Geng Wanli wants to go south, he will pass through the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range, should we ask him to ask the Heavenly Sword Villa for help again?”

Empress Cang Yue’s eyebrows fiercely crazed as she turned her gaze in the direction of the Heavenly Sword Villa, her voice icy cold as she said, “A thousand years ago, my Cang Feng ancestor, and my Heavenly Sword ancestor were life and death buddies, and the two of them supported each other, with one holding the power of the world, and one holding the power of the world, and swore a mutual blood oath of coexistence and co-death, that if one side was facing the danger of annihilation, the other side must pour out their efforts in helping each other… …Back then, my Cangfeng royal family was in turmoil, my father was poisoned by a traitor, they didn’t listen and didn’t ask questions, already unkind and unrighteous, but at that time, the royal family wasn’t facing the danger of extinction, they could still be forgiven.”

“And now, Cangfeng’s demise is on the verge, between two years, has asked the Heavenly Sword Villa for help nine times, and even went so far as to grovel, but they closed up the Villa and never paid attention. Since they’ve already cut off their righteousness, why do we need to humiliate ourselves anymore!”

General Feng slowly nodded his head, “My lord knows, my lord will leave.”

“Wait!” Empress Cang Yue turned around, “Even though the favor has been broken, the Heavenly Sword Villa, should indeed make another trip.”

Cang Yue Empress voice fell, her hands have spread a light golden silk, her fingers condensed Xuan Li, in the silk quickly write ……

“The hatred of unrighteousness, the hatred of indifference, this emperor remembers! If Cangfeng is not overthrown this time, Cangfeng and Heavenly Sword will no longer have any past favors and will forever be enemies!!!”

The Cang Yue Empress did not cover up when she wrote, and those who were a little closer could see clearly what she wrote on the silk. After she finished writing, she folded the silk and handed it over to General Feng: “Send someone to the Heavenly Sword Villa, don’t need to meet anyone, just throw it directly to the foot of the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range! Regardless of whether Cangfeng survives or dies this time, this Emperor’s words will never be taken back!”

Looking at the handwriting on the silk silk that was handsome in its imperial might, General Feng nodded heavily, put the silk silk silk away, and quickly retreated.

Empress Cang Yue watched him leave, then turned around and looked into the distant distance, no one knew what was going through her mind.

“…… I am Cang Feng’s daughter, Yun Che’s wife, and even if I die, I will never tarnish my family’s and my husband’s prestige!”
